Even Better Clinical Dark Spot Corrector & Optimizer.

New from Clinique. This story really starts in the New York offices of Dr. David Orentriech, guiding dermatologist to Clinique. The insight: even patients who meticulously follow a regimen will often find their dark spots returning. The cause is irritation, which prompts skin to over-produce melanin and bring new darkening.
